As he’s a local and has lived the transformation, it was fascinating to hear his anecdotes. He explained in a very engaging way, leaving no questions unanswered. 100% recommend!!”

Same with the food tasting we didn’t get to try the ceviche because the place was closed but never made it up somewhere else. Overall it was too much money for such a concise tour”
